It did a little bit. But I used some valve grinding compound on it mated the to the flywheel and smoothed it out. Made a huge difference. Flywheel fits snug with no movement what so ever.

OMG I love that poster in the background

Good to know!

Anyone out there have a PDF of a RuppRoadster2 Maintenance Manual Something that contains lubrication points, things to keep an eye on, etc... especially around the TC1 units.

If you know where I can get a 3” pto crank for an HS40 cheap, let me know

I’ll be taking it back out. I’d like to clean up the cylinder head surfaces. I’ll get some shots of the crank cleaned up

Without being torqued down? Yes. A little bit. These cranks are hard to come by. At least that’s been my experience. Usually sell between $150 - $200. So if I can fix it I’d rather go that route.

Ok one more question, I was able to aquire a .020 over piston, had the cylinder bored .020 over so, cylinder issue should be resolved. However, looking at the fly wheel and crank mating surfaces, the guy used lock-tite red on it, as well as the threads, when he torqued down the flywheel nut...

Got a pic, curious to know what it looks like

Agreed, I really need to contact him and see if he’ll make this right.

It’s an HS40-55356C Ser: 11590 so 1971? What year did the HS40 have a chrome bore?

I know, it’s the first time I ever sent a motor to someone to work on, I was having ignition issues that we’re driving me batty and ended up striping the crank shaft flywheel side threads. It’s for a Rupp roadster2 so I needed a 3” PTO shaft replacement. Sent him the motor and he said the...

I know, I do also have the billit forged connecting rod from ARC. Could that have caused the issue? I have a oversized piston I acquired, I’m not sure a .010 over piston will be enough to fix it though. I have someone that can do the boring for me. I just want to make sure I’m not looking...

Prob 20 minutes, tops

I’ve got an HS40 that I had someone do work on. They said they replaced an exhaust valve, piston rings, honed the cylinder, new lighting flywheel, He said the valve guide looked worn but seemed ok with a the new valve. When running the engine, it always seemed to take a few tries to get it...

ok cool, at least I know what to look for now. I’ll test it that flywheel with the coil from my hs40 when it comes

Was able to pick this one up Looks similar to the magnet setup I have on my lighted hs40 and hs50.

I was able to pick this one up

Looking for a lighting coil for an H70 points engine. Anyone know the part #? Can the same coil be used on other engines, like HS50/40 or H60/50 etc…

Interested in the .10 over piston PM me
